Can you find the next number in the list?
2, 12, 36, 80, 150, 252, 392, _ ?
The next number is 576.
The series follows the following pattern
Square of n + cube of n
Where n is an integer ascending one at a time, starting from 1.
n = 1 => 1^2 + 1^3 = 1 + 1 = 1
n = 2 => 2^2 + 2^3 = 4 + 8 = 12
and so on...
Therefore the next number will be
8^2 + 8^3 = 576
